what about taking some pressure off us? we have a massive debt burden, we really need some compensation here, as well. but it's worth taking a step back even from that and saying the germans and other surface running countries in europe always did have the opportunity to bail out the deficit countries, but almost the obligation. that's what happens if you create a united states of europe. just like alabama was bailed out by new york state or whatever it is. >> i think you were struggling to find a strong state there for a second. >> was a little bit. so the actual transfers aren't necessarily the problem. the problems are two fold. the first as you alluded to is the internal competitiveness of particularly the peripheral countries. when they joined the euro, they took advantage of the low borrowing costs to borrow and spend up a storm, public sector wages went up. and they become dramatically uncompetitive. and the easy way is to leave the euro. the painful way is to stay. so the other thing to bear in mind is the banks. ba

joining us now is martin fletcher following the story for us. martin, good morning. we've heard the violence continuing. what's the latest now? >> israel's complain for the cease fire was that palestinians shoulds also cease fire and that didn't happen. and there's been a flurry of activity this morning with israeli airplane strikes on the targets. so more of the same. 85 separate israeli air strike this is 45 minutes. but at least there was an attempt. and the cease fire is a mission of support, but also to try to encourage hamas to deal with the more longer term cease fire. there is a possibility that the turkish prime minister will also visit gaza. so there are s. a lot of international pressure building up on hamas to agree to a cease-fire mainly because everyone is of a phrase of an israeli ground invasion. all signs are that ez really is really building up its forces. 16,000 soldiers have been summoned to their bases. so israel is making every preparation for an invasion of ground invasion of gaza. doesn't mean it could happen. it could just be a show of force.

dominic is still with us. i suppose the question is what we've sort of global equities have priced in in terms of a scenario for the fiscal cliff. what do you think it is? >> i think markets have been sanguine about the whole issue and it's only after the election that we began to see nervousness. and i still think the likely outcome is the market will have to put further pressure on both sides before a deal is finally done. and i actually don't think we'll good a deal done this side of the new year. >> you yu don't? >> no, i don't. because the republicans have put themselves in a difficult position because they've actually said no way that they will endorse tax hikes. if they allow the tax increases to automatically go through on the 31st, they can then talk about tax cuts for the middle classes in january. it's cynical, but it may be what actually happens. >> so what happens on that? because there are some saying u.s. equitieses have already priced in the fiscal cliff and they look at it as a measuring of eq
